Helping Refugee Ukrainian Families

Several of you have expressed a desire to host a refugee family from Ukraine. The good news is that there is progress with US Law, but as it is said, it is complicated.

Through a friend of our community, Dana Bucin, Honorary Consul of Romania to Connecticut, I will circulate some guidelines soon. She is in the process of creating the guidelines.

Another note, you may have seen the interview Dana gave just a few minutes ago on Channel 8 News.

When I get the guidelines from Dana Bucin, I will forward it to you. Together we will find a way to assist in this work of Mercy.
